“Great value, simple construction, space saving when folded. Stored in a small shed on the deck outside our retirement flat, it is easy to pull out and replace, and exercise in the open air. The central hinge pin folding mechanism works well, with a removable pin to allow the frame to open. Very smooth operation with easy load change knob below the handle bars, operating a magnetic load brake. For a couple of 85 year olds to get hip, leg and knee joints working it is fine. It may not suit a purist and I am not sure about the accuracy of the small screen output for distance, speed, calories burned and pulse rate. However, the timer is fine and the increase in pulse rate with effort is noticeable. The only criticism I would have is the method of seat height adjustment. This involves locating an appropriate hole (which cannot be seen) in the saddle post opposite the hole on the main frame and then screwing in a fixing bolt. This is OK if only one person is to use it, but changing the seat height to suit two different individuals is rather irritating. It would be better if a round tube were welded into the rectangular from and a standard round tubular seat post were used, with the now standard quick adjustment lever bolt as on most bikes. This would also allow selection of a different saddle is desired. However, I do not feel this niggle is sufficient to mark down the overall rating from 5 star. All we need to do now is keep using it and taking the tablets...!!”

“As a 73 year-old it was surprisingly easy to put together. It is sturdy and easy to fold up, although I have it facing my desktop and once I find a good programme on catch-up it just stays where it is and I can pedal away!”

“I bought it for my husband who needed a static bike to aid recovery from a torn meniscus in his knee. The folding mechanism is very good however the bike is quite heavy to take out twice a day, so he leaves it up. It was easy to construct, comfortable to sit on and has a really good range of functions. His condition has improved significantly and he will continue to use it to strengthen the muscles around his knee. Excellent product”

“Brilliant piece of kit! Highly recommended. Simple, straightforward and compact. Comfortable upright position & good range of tensions. Doesn't take up much room & folds away easily. Excellent value for money!”

“My first one of this bike broke within 2 weeks. The resistance stopped working (assume the magnets disconnected somehow). A replacement was sent out within 3 working days and that one has had no problems so far. Comfy seat and easy to use display.”

“Strong, sturdy, silent, and very well made. I love it, it's worth every penny. If you want a folding exercise bike you'd be crazy not to get one of these.”
